摘要:
It has been surprisingly discovered that administration of nitrite to subjects causes a reduction in blood pressure and an increase in blood flow to tissues. The effect is particularly beneficial, for example, to tissues in regions of low oxygen tension. This discovery provides useful treatments to regulate a subject's blood pressure and blood flow, for example, by the administration of nitrite salts. Provided herein are methods of administering a pharmaceutically-acceptable nitrite salt to a subject, for treating, preventing or ameliorating a condition selected from: (a) ischemia-reperfusion injury (e.g., hepatic or cardiac or brain ischemia-reperfusion injury); (b) pulmonary hypertension (e.g., neonatal pulmonary hypertension); or (c) cerebral artery vasospasm.

This invention relates to a method for inhibiting the growth of neoplasms, in a mammal having a prolactin profile. This method involves comparing the prolactin profile of the afflicted mammal to a standard prolactin profile for healthy mammals of the same species and sex and adjusting the prolactin profile of the afflicted mammal to conform to or approach the standard prolactin profile for a mammal of the same species and sex of the afflicted mammal, thereby inhibiting the neoplastic growth.

Administration of modified transposon-based vectors has been used to achieve stable incorporation of exogenous genes into animals. These transgenic animals produce transgenic progeny. Further, these transgenic animals produce large quantities of desired molecules encoded by the transgene. Transgenic egg-laying animals produce large quantities of desired molecules encoded by the transgene and deposit these molecules in the egg.

The present invention relates to a method of accelerating the onset of puberty in avians, especially ratites and psittaciformes, by administering a heterologous protein comprising inhibin, or a fragment thereof, and a carrier protein. The present invention also relates to a method of increasing egg production in animals, particularly birds, more particularly ratites, via the administration of the heterologous protein. This invention further relates to the heterologous protein and a method for producing the heterologous protein. The heterologous protein can be either inhibin conjugated to the carrier protein or inhibin fused to the carrier protein. The method of producing the fused heterologous protein comprises inserting double stranded cDNA encoding inhibin, or a fragment thereof, into a vector which encodes a carrier protein such as maltose binding protein or bovine serum albumin. After inserting the vector into an expression system, the fused heterologous protein is expressed by the system. After purifying the expressed heterologous protein, an effective amount of the protein is administered to an animal such that an immunological response occurs in the animal against the heterologous protein.

Procédé d'activation de la reproduction chez des vertébrés d'élevage saisonnier pendant des saisons au cours desquelles la reproduction n'a pas normalement lieu, consistant à administrer de la L-dihydroxyphenylalanine (L-DOPA), augmentant ainsi le niveau de L-DOPA dans le flux sanguin du vertébré jusqu'à un niveau d'activation de la reproduction. On peut également injecter une dose efficace de 5-HTP au vertébré suivie, après une certaine période, d'une injection d'une dose efficace de L-DOPA.
